The presence of shadows in high-resolution satellite image can occlude some of the objects in the image. This problem mainly caused in urban areas. Shadows are usually cast by long objects such as buildings and towers in urban areas. The existence of shadows may cause loss of feature information, false color tone and shape distortion of objects, which seriously affect the quality of images. In order to restore the obscured object information shadow detection and shadow removal is an essential preprocessing step. To find the best shadow detection and removal methods a large number of researches have been going. Many algorithms and methods had been developed so far. This paper is aimed at the study of different shadow detection and removal algorithms for urban high resolution satellite images.
